- Have you tried the old fashion yet quaint way of sending flowers with
- a note attached? But I suggest that you don't sent a big bunch of
- roses but rather one pink rose (pink means "I like you" after all you
- don't want to overwelm her or scare her off.) Then write something
- nice and sign it " Your Secret Admirer" or " A Hopeful Friend" which
- ever you feel applies. Then keep sending little notes, poems, and
- suprises, but don't sign your name to anything this will keep her
- wondering. Also I'm sure it will brighten her day. Then when you feel
- you've worked up your courage write one more note asking her out to
- something not to fancy but still nice dinner at a certain time. Ask
- her to do something like tie a scarf on her doorknob if the answer is
- yes. This way you don't have to worry about your shyness getting in
- the way of asking her out. But be careful that your shyness doesn't
- stop her from getting to know the real you once you do go out. After
- all, the other things only give her a glimpse of you. Good Luck! I
- hope it works out. Please let me know how it goes.

- All I know is, it'd work for me.
